A list of another ten toys that parents dread is on The List Universe.It reminds me of a certain rainy afternoon when I, in a moment of weakness, bought a brand-new box of Play-doh for the kids.They immediately combined all the beautiful bright colors into one huge ball of poo colored brown.I launched into a lecture on why we should try to keep the brand-new Play-doh in their separate colors for at least a little while.The kids gave me the 'what-ever you say, crazy lady' look...it's the same look the neighbor girl gives me when I try to explain to her why she can't take her stuffed animals in the hot tub.I sounded just like my mother.Sigh....."Just don't get it on the carpet."I like Lego's though.
